3.OpenHabitTracker – The friendly habit tracker.
OpenHabitTracker doesn’t use a streak counter
You won’t feel demotivated when you skip a habit once because you won’t have to start your streak from zero
It tracks the time elapsed since your last task completion and compares it to the task’s repeating interval:
– A task with a 10 day interval which is 2 days overdue is at 120%
– A task with a 4 day interval which is 2 days overdue is at 150%
OpenHabitTracker is free, open source and works on Web, Windows, Linux, Android, iOS and macOS!
